poszod@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the most immersive video game that you've played?7·7 months agoI’m a big fan of open world for immersion. Oblivion when it came out, GTA SA and 5, RDR2.
But something that surprised me about immersion was Cataclysm DDA (with good tile and sound packs). It takes a long time to get into the groove of the game as a first timer, but once you do, the emergent stories that come out of it are incredibly immersive.
Bullet hands down. Best handling of all the sports cars, and the most pleasant motor sound.
poszod@lemmy.worldto Explain Like I'm Five@lemmy.world•If Trumps tariffs go thru would that not cause the countries the tariffs are imposed on just raise their prices? And a result of that hurt the american consumer? Why do it to begin with?English3·7 months agoAs an anecdote about this, most countries in South America charge a 100% import tax on almost all electronic devices (laptops, phones, pc parts, cameras, etc). Not only the exchange rates already make these purchases almost impossible, they also have to pay double. The ripple effects on the future of a country where people don’t have access to the tools they might need to develop themselves is tragic.

This is the photo I use as an example when people complain about editing in photography. The diagonal shadow was famously added in post production:

poszod@lemmy.worldto Books@lemmy.world•Help with regaining ability to focus and fight procrastination6·7 months agoI was like that for almost 4 years, during and after the whole covid thing. I could engage with activities outside of my house (gym, sports, going out with friends), but inside was apathy.
Only thing that helped was ADHD medication.

Caves of Qud was my first contact with post post-apocalypse. Can’t even begin to convey how strange and magical everything feels in that universe.

poszod@lemmy.worldto Relationship Advice@lemmy.world•Am i demanding too much from my boyfriend?English4·7 months agoSeems pretty clear to me that he doesn’t have the courage to break up with you. I see that you’re hurting. If you look at it through this lens, his behaviour will start to make sense to you.
So many features, goddamn. Bunch of social things:

poszod@lemmy.worldto New Communities@lemmy.world•Do you refrain from participating to a community if it's hosted on Lemmy.ml ?English5211·8 months agoI’ve blocked the instance quite a while ago. In the beginning I was just blocking communities, but the users spill everywhere unless you go nuclear.
State actors could be interested in doing that. Same with the internet archive attacks.
poszod@lemmy.worldto Games@sh.itjust.works•Halls of Torment is Diablo cranked up to 50,000 kills/hourEnglish9·9 months agoI agree that there’s nothing wrong with remixes. Vampire Survivors dude invented a new genre and all, people who say these games are “copying” Vampire Survivors probably also say that every FPS is copying Maze War lol
Death Must Die was indeed fun. Soulstone Survivor is pretty good too.
poszod@lemmy.worldto Games@sh.itjust.works•Halls of Torment is Diablo cranked up to 50,000 kills/hourEnglish422·9 months agol don’t understand people who think there’s any meaningful comparison between Diablo and HoT.
HoT is a vampire-survivors game, and in my opinion is the actual best in the genre, I have dozens of hours in it. This type of gameplay has absolutely nothing to do with ARPGs.
I agree that forced exclusivity is bad. I absolutely disagree with your statement that ubisoft store was better than steam, I don’t even understand how you can say something like that. But yes, without the games any store is worthless.
You didn’t respond to my question though, so I’ll repeat it: even if someone was able to launch a product with feature parity to steam, why would anyone migrate?
It doesn’t matter if it were being used for its intended purpose, parking like this is absolutely wrong.
